Every restaurant wants fewer broken plates and fewer emergency reorders because they result in lower replacement costs. Sustainability in dinnerware rarely starts with a big environmental goal. It usually starts with frustration that comes with managing a dining operation. Plates chip faster than expected. Stacks never look complete. Boxes of...
What if you learn that by simply swapping your plate size, you can save up to USD 300 to USD 600 a day? That too, without changing your menu or portion quality? Instead of using the standard 12-inch dinner plates, use 10.5-inch plates. With decreased space to fill, deliberately add...
